Location
This 0.88-acre parcel is located in Robertson County, Texas, near the town of Thornton, within the Lake Limestone Coves subdivision. The lot carries R-1 Residential zoning, meaning it is designated for single-family residential use. Parcel ID: 003000-011550.
Nearest Cities & Distances

A second nearby population center, with roughly 83,980 residents, is also about 1 hour and 42 minutes away.
Nearby Amenities
Being within a 1–2 hour drive of Waco opens up access to major retail centers, hospitals, schools, and entertainment options, while the property itself remains in a quieter, low-density residential subdivision — Lake Limestone Coves — suited to buyers who want room to build without sacrificing reasonable access to a larger city.
Why Buy This Property
This lot offers several practical advantages for a buyer ready to build:
- Flat terrain — no costly grading or site prep typically associated with sloped lots
- 333 feet of paved road frontage — reliable year-round access
- Utilities available — water at the street, sewer/septic, and electricity are all available to the property
- No perk test or survey required — fewer upfront hurdles before breaking ground
- Outside any flood zone — added peace of mind for construction and insurance
- R-1 Residential zoning — clear path to building a single-family, site-built home (minimum 1,000 sq ft living area, with specified exterior and roofing standards)
Investment Potential
With a low annual tax burden of approximately $242 and utilities already available at or near the property line, holding costs are minimal for buyers not ready to build immediately.
